No.. or at least less so than others... Fox showed Oprah and Obamba? Fox is accused of being right biased... and no one that I know of has ever acused the Democrats of being right wing. So why didn't the other networks show this?

Fox is owned by a staunch Republican, so of course it's biased.
Anyone with half a brain only needs to watch Fox news (news? propaganda!) and Hannity et al to know it's radically Republican.
It's showing Oprah and Obama because it knows her support will work against him in many circles. And, btw, not just in Republican circles. Candidly, if he is the Dems. presidential candidate, the Republicans would love it because, when it gets right down to it, the US is not going to choose a naive and inexperienced black man to run the country. Faced with that choice, many Dems will vote Republican or not vote at all. That's why Fox is showing Oprah and Obama. If he gets chosen, a Republican has a good shot at winning the presidency.
Remember that spoiler, Ralph Nader? Look how he messed up the Democratic ticket.

Dont you find it ironic that it's the media telling us that the media is corupt?
ABC, CBS NBS are the ones telling us to beware of Fox because they are biased.
I dont remember the link, but maybe someone that follows this answer can post it for you.
There is a website that keeps up with biased opinions stated during News broadcasts. I think the statements are posted by viewers and verified by admn (could be wrong)
It's been a little while since I looked at that website, but I am pretty sure ABC was the leader in left leaning statements...which isnt a suprise to me at all.
Once Preter Jenning died, ABC News credibility died too.
Charlie Gibson seems to be a pretty nice guy..but "walking the middle of the road" he is not!

in certainty, merely at present some media communities and one non-partisan study team surely surveyed the memories presented on the main networks. end grow to be that Fox surely grow to be the main balanced and presented the two aspects of subject concerns. MSNBC is unquestionably, palms-down, the main ridiculously biased.

Fox news leans right. But they do invite individuals from both sides of issues to debate.

I don't think Fox is biased, just a couple of hosts like Bill O. and Sean are very right wing. Neither is MSNBC itself biased, though they have Keith Olbermann. People like to generealize, plus it's just competitive banter to win an audience. I like to watch all the news channels equally. I can filter through and arrive at the truth myself.
I'm sure there are choices made as to which stories are told and which not, but all in all, all the US news networks are VERY limited and incomplete. Watch BBC or a European news station and you see things from all over the world, not just Brittany Spears and Paris Hilton.

Well most gop supports are eating up the fact that Oprah is hyping Obama... They see it as a negative for him and it will rally their base.
Liberal Media myth….
The Liberal Media is owned by Corporations.
There is 9 hours of conservative talk on the radio for every 1 hour of Liberal talk.
Look at how many Religious (Christian) Channels are on the Cable and Radio channels.
Do the companies that make Billions in profits each year really care about Main Street or do they care more about Wall Street.
How many of these companies are going to release negative articles about them selves or the Corporations that pay their bills?
Which political ideology are they going to keep close?
The Cons/Reps that want to keep their taxes low or the Dems/ Libs who want to raise their taxes and break up the media monopoly
Here are the facts about the Liberal Media.
16 Companies own 80% of all Media
NBC MSNBC CNBC Owned by GE... Defense contractors.
ABC ESPN S Owned by Disney…. Conservative company.
CBS Owned by Viacom… Big Business
CNN HLN Owned by Time Warner…Big Business
Fox News FNC Owned by New Corp. Corporation is part of their name.
Print. News Corp owns the NY Post and the Wall ST. Journal.
How many of these companies are owned or ran by a Liberal company?
Look who advertises on these channels especially the “news” channels. Follow the money.
-Insurance companies
-GE advertised locomotives and water desalination plants
-Big drug companies advertise products you can’t go out and by
-Big oil companies advertise their commitment to the environment.
-Who tries to by influence with the media and its watchers?
-Can the average person go out and buy ½ of the stuff on TV?
Yet Millions of Americans will blame the “Liberal Media”

"I think Fox & CNN have signed a secret agreement to back rival candidates. Even if the candidates are clowns, it doesnt matter, as ratings go sky high due to comedic & entertainment value."

Yes...and you are wrong, as I watched CBS news tonite and they had the Oprah Obama story as the lead. ABC and CBS feature the story on their websites.
PS I just watched a story on it on WNBC New York 11 o"clock news
